Hi Richard,

"...we found out recently major limitations...", "This is such a 
shame...", "Maybe what we are asking is impossible to accomplish with 
QCONFIRM..."

I can only say: WOW.

Maybe you should have read Qmail's documentation (paying special 
attention to the "WILDCARD ASSIGNMENTS" section of the qmail-users 
manpage) before posting such a message.

qconfirm creates confirmation addresses on the fly. For example, for 
your [email protected] it would create a file called 
/var/qmail/DOMAINS/domain1/user1/.qmail-qconfirm-[key] whenever that 
user receives an email. If that user account had been created as a 
wildcard address (in your Qmail's users/assign), then qconfirm would be 
able to catch the confirmation email and do its work.

Since your users aren't configured as wildcard addresses, any incoming 
email that doesn't exactly match any of the existing users is bounced by 
Qmail.

Regards,
